Hi,
I have a mid 2010 Macbook pro that is currently slowing down to a crawl- even typing searches, sometimes writing in Scrivener etc is slow. I try to keep only one or two programs running simultaneously.
I am running version 10.7.4
2.4 Ghz Intel Core Duo
4GB 1067 Mhz DDR3
preface: I have only half a clue what all this is on my computer... I just use the thing.
I am making a short film on FCPX, storing most of the footage on an external HD, however since I have been using FCPX the whole system is slowing down.
I am wondering if I have activities going on behind the scenes that I should know about?
Could anyone please help me out by looking at my screen shots of the activity monitor ( I have 4 shots here ) and letting me know if they think anything is awry? All I can offer in return is Karma points
Thanks,
Yogaguerillagirl
